That’s the thing about love
It can take you up to the mountaintop and can drop you
And the impact will either kill you or make you a new person

Why Did I Marry You Anyway?: Overcoming the Myths That Hinder a Happy Marriage
This does not escape my notice, it is a context. I resent the fact of a context; my social status has shifted and no one is going to acknowldege it, that´s certain. I´m expected to be Brave and Rise Above. I dress for the role; I must look far better now that I did when I was married. I must look pulled together into a nice tight Hermès knot of self-containment. I don´t make the rules; I just do my best to follow them.
- Suzanne Finnamore

We were alone, quiet, but everything we weren’t saying sounded loud, so loud among that sunlight and glass.
- Carrie R. Moore
Make Your Way Home: Stories
All things that are genuinely interesting aren't quite real" Mark had said. It was almost frustrating, really, how right that stupid little mad had been about so many things.
- Rufi Thorpe
Margo's Got Money Troubles
His mind was a kaleidoscope: Atlanta, sea-green eyes, slender figure, titian hair, frigid manner. "I never dance with niggers." Then he fell asleep about five o'clock and promptly dreamed of her. Dreamed of dancing with her, dining with her, motoring with her, sitting beside her on a golden throne while millions of manacled white slaves prostrated themselves before him. Then there was a nightmare of grim, gray men with shotguns, baying hounds, a heap of gasoline-soaked faggots and a screeching, fanatical mob.
- George S. Schuyler
Black No More
I know he’ll never get on my nerves, and that I’ll never yell at him for coming home late. I know we’ll never experience the petty bickering that goes hand in hand with domestic life.
- Sarah Jollien-Fardel

I wasn’t asking to be heard loudly. I was asking to be heard truly.
- Sandra Sloat
We Never Spoke the Same Language
Eveytime I go outside, I’m reminded of why I don’t go outside.

Men, and their desire to make any kind of conversation circle around to sex related within 3.5 minutes of knowing you.

Exhausting
Don't ask me about being strong. I have seen myself get replaced in the life of someone who once said I was their whole world. I have cried for someone who promised to always make me smile. I have been through a lot, I have seen enough. Now I don't have to act strong now I just feel heartless.
- Garima Soni
Life Simplified: Quote - Unquote
I am used to being lonely now… not because I like it, but because it’s way better than the noise of people who are around me only to use me. Now, I have stopped expecting, stopped explaining, stopped waiting because loneliness hurts less than pretending someone cares when they don’t.

All the Way to the River
Life becomes peaceful when you understand that your feelings belong to you, not to anyone else. People may hurt you, disappoint you, or leave you, but how long you stay affected is your choice. The moment you stop expecting others to handle your emotions, you start gaining control over your peace. In relationships, this truth saves you from a lot of pain. Because when your happiness depends only on others, you lose yourself. But when it comes from within, no one can take it away.
